PREFACE 

Ancient Waterbury, or Mattatuck as it was originally 
called, comprised an area so extensive as to include, wholly 
or in part, settlements that later became incorporated towns, 
notable among which are : Watertown, Plymouth, Wolcott, 
Middlebury, Prospect, Naugatuck, and Thomaston. The 
dwellers in these outlying hamlets, sometimes miles away 
from the main plantation, naturally desired to bury their 
dead nearer home, and thus came into being, either in con- 
nection with a meeting-house or independently, the isolated 
burying-ground in different sections of the early township. 
Some of these, like the Grand Street Cemetery, have been 
utterly destroyed, while others still extant may one day 
share a similar fate. 

To ensure the permanent preservation of records fur- 
nished by these relics of the past, The Mattatuck Historical 
Society, through its Memorial Committee, in 191 6 author- 
ized the compilation of the present volume, the second in its 
series of publications. As a matter of record, this work 
owes its inception to a suggestion made by the late Fred- 
erick J. Kingsbury, LL.D., pending the decision of city 
officials as to the fate of the "antientest" burying-ground 
in the old town of Waterbury. Acting on his suggestion, 
the Misses Prichard with rare patience and persistence 
deciphered and transcribed the epitaphs that constitute the 
first section of this work. In addition to inscriptions on 
tombstones, town records and documents pertaining to 
various churches here appear in print for the first time. 
In one instance, that of the Congregational Church in 
Plymouth, records of marriages and deaths supposed to be 
irretrievably lost have recently come to light and are incor- 
porated in the volume. The Judd and Skilton memorials 
also add an element of accuracy and freshness to data 



8 Preface 

already published regarding former dwellers in the Parish 
of Westbury, now Watertown, 

Possibly the most unusual items appearing in the volume 
are: the meeting-house book, giving information as to the 
cost of building the second house of worship; the seating 
of the meeting-house in 1791, of special interest to those 
whose ancestors had a share in the development of early 
Waterbury, and most important of all a list of the tax- 
paying inhabitants from 1730 to 1783, few towns being 
able to boast so early a record of this sort covering the 
long period of fifty-four years. Care has been taken to 
reproduce these various documents in close conformity 
with the originals, especially as regards the unusual spelling 
of names, and it is believed that in this particular as well as 
in other respects a high degree of accuracy has been 
attained. 

The Mattatuck Historical Society is fortunate in still 
having among its members one whose interest in the affairs 
of Waterbury has never flagged and whose labors in pro- 
moting the history of the town, both biographically and 
genealogically, are widely recognized. To Miss Katharine 
A. Prichard, who so successfully transcribed and edited 
"Proprietors' Records," the first publication of the Society, 
was therefore accorded the task of collecting data for the 
present volume and of preparing these records for the press. 
That an equal measure of success has crowned her efforts in 
this second voluntary service for the Society will be apparent 
to all those who scan the work critically. 

Acknowledgment should also be made of the valuable 
assistance given by Miss Lucy Peck Bush, Assistant Secre- 
tary of the Society, in the preparation of the volume for 
publication.

Grand Street Cemetery 
Inscriptions 

1709-1871 



The Grand Street Cemetery on "Burying- 
Yard Hill" 

The earliest mention that has been noticed upon our rec- 
ords of a burial place in Waterbury is in 1695, as follows: 
"The town grants to Edman scot a parsel of land laying 
within the comon fenc buting east on the buring yard south 
on the grat lot north on the fens west on the hig way." 

It is well known that the custom prevailed at an early date 
of appropriating the foot of the minister's garden for a 
burial place, and as Mr. Peck's house-lot extended from the 
present St. John's church to present Grand street — the land 
at first occupied by this cemetery being a continuation of 
the same — there is no doubt that the practice was followed 
here. This was the only place of burial within the 
township until 1709. 

There had died during this time, besides the Rev. Mr. 
Peck, ten of the proprietors of the town, two wives and 
mothers, four young men, and at least fifteen children. Of 
their graves, the only memorial that remains is the grave- 
stone of young Benjamin Barnes (No. 51). 

The office of grave-digger seems to have been filled by 
appointment, with the other town officers, at the yearly 
December meeting on occasional years, Benjamin Barnes 
being the first person so chosen — in 1700. Edmund Scott's 
name is next mentioned, he having filled the office in 1708, 
1717, 1720 and 1722; Richard Porter in 1711, 1712 and 
1713; Thomas Richason until 1716; Samuel Barnes in 
1 71 9; Moses Bronson in 1724; and in 1725 it is recorded 
that "it was left with the townsmen to procure somebody 
to do it." John Welton dug the graves in 1726, 1727 and 



12 Grand Street Cemetery 

1729; after the latter date the only appointments on record 
are: "Joi^^than Scott, son of Edmund" for 1737; and for 
^73^ *'J^"ies Pritchard was made choice of to dig the 
graves as there shall be occasion." 

From this time until near the close of the century we 
know little of the history of this place. "Burying-yard 
hill," "Ram pasture" and "Ram Pasture lane" are referred 
to in deeds and layouts of land, but whose hands prepared 
the late resting places of our beloved ancestors, tradition 
does not tell us. 

Judge Bennet Bronson left a manuscript list of about six 
hundred deaths, which he states was copied from Captain 
Benjamin Upson's account. From this we infer that Ben- 
jamin Upson was the sexton from 1797 until his death in 
1824, or nearly to that time. John S. Tuttle probably fol- 
lowed Upson, and Ard Warner succeeded Tuttle. Henry 
Garry Hotchkiss became sexton in 1843 ^^^ had charge of 
the ground until he left town in i860 or 186 1. The Water- 
bury American said of him : "During the time that he has 
had the charge he has done all that was in his power, with 
the limited means granted him by the selectmen, to keep it 
free from brush and attend to the necessary repairs, for 
which he states that he has received very inadequate 
remuneration." Sturges M. Judd was the custodian of the 
place from 1862 until its destruction in 1891. 

Soon after the opening of Riverside cemetery in 1853, 
removals from the old to the new place of burial were 
begun, and the old place soon showed the effect thereof. 
Re-opened graves, with fragments of coffins left uncovered 
in them, and overturned headstones and footstones became 
features of the place, and before many years had passed, 
the ground was overgrown with weeds, briers and bushes, 
save that a few careful hands kept in order the graves of 
their friends and relatives. 



m-- 



Introduction 1 3 

In 1884, the Rev. Dr. Anderson, in a sermon pleading 
for the use of this neglected piece of land, suggested that 
it should be appropriated for a public park, with, perhaps, 
"in the center a building worthy to serve as the home of 
our public library." He adds : 

About a year ago, with a laborious care which only those can fully 
appreciate who have attempted a similar work, Sturges M. Judd 
procured and prepared the data for a complete map of the Grand 
street burying-ground. This map when finished will aim to contain 
every recognizable grave in the entire enclosure, those graves which 
have inscribed headstones being clearly distinguished from the others. 

Mr. Judd's map, which was deposited with the Bronson 
library for safe keeping, was accompanied by a record of 
the names and ages of the persons so interred, as found 
upon the headstones, and a list, as far as known to Mr. 
Judd, of persons there buried without monumental stones — 
including the Roman Catholic cemetery. In 1890 and 
1 89 1, a copy of the entire inscriptions upon the stones — 
not including the Roman Catholic portion — was made by 
the writer. Julius Gay of Farmington also made a tran- 
script of names, dates and ages, in 1885. A comparison of 
these lists shows that no stones had disappeared between 
1885 and 1890. The record of 1890 gives a few names 
not noted by Mr. Gay, and about fifty not given by Mr. 
Judd. 

Probably the stone that will interest the largest number 
of persons is that of Hannah (Strong), wife of John 
Hopkins, the miller, and foremother of a long hne of 
distinguished men. Her descendants to-day are many 
(No. 336). 

On April 26, 1882, the legislature by special act author- 
ized and empowered the Town of Waterbury, by the 
majority of its selectmen, to convey its interest in the old 
Grand street cemetery to the City of Waterbury. The act. 



14 Grand Street Cemetery 

while providing for the purchase of individual interests in 
the old burial-grounds, directed as follows : 

The city shall make arrangements for suitable places in other 
cemeteries to which the remains and monuments remaining in said 
old burial grounds may be removed, in all cases where the friends 
of those buried in the old burial grounds do not provide for the 
same. . . . Upon the passage of the final decree and the payment 
to the parties of the respective sums, and the removal of the remaining 
bodies and monuments from the old burial grounds, said old burial 
grounds shall be used as a public park by the city of Waterbury, or the 
same may be used for any suitable public building, or other public 
purpose. 

This act was ratified by a vote of the city in May, 1890. 
On January 4, 1891, the town deeded the land to the city. 
On April 24, Charles R. Baldwin, the mayor of the city, 
complied with the requirements of the above-mentioned act 
in so far as to cause excavations to be made and the remain- 
ing stones to be sunken out of sight — sometimes, but not 
always, over the graves to which they belonged. In some 
cases two or three stones were buried together. The 
remainder were placed in what was once "the vault." The 
grounds were subsequently graded, a retaining wall was 
built on Meadow street, and a portion of the land was 
conveyed to the board of agents of the Bronson library, as 
appears from the deed recorded in Volume CXXVI of the 
Land Records.^ 



'At a Meeting of the Court of Common Council of the City of 
Waterbury, legally warned and held for that purpose, on Monday 
evening, March 2nd, 1891, the following vote was passed, and the 
same was approved by the mayor of said city on the — day of March, 
1891. 

Whereas the superior court for New Haven County on June 
23rd, 1889, ordered the removal of the remaining bodies and monu- 
ments from the Grand Street cemetery and directed that the work be 
done under the direction of the mayor of this city and at the expense 
of said city, and whereas it has been voted to set apart a site for a 
new library building for the Bronson library in said city, now there- 
fore be it voted by this court of common council of the city of 



Introduction 1 5 

When the excavation for the cellar of the Bronson 
library building was made, many stones which the city had 
buried were taken out of the ground in a fair state of 
preservation, but no one appeared to care for them, and the 
oldest and most valuable, lying scattered on the surface of 
the ground, were crushed under cart wheels. Such as 
remained uninjured are now in the cellar of the library 
building. 

A record of the bodies removed in the spring of 1891 
was kept by Nelson J. Welton. Some were taken out of 
town, some removed to Mill Plain cemetery and others 
to Riverside. Among them were the remains of Susanna, 
wife of Thomas Bronson (great-grandmother of Dr. 
Henry Bronson), who had been buried 150 years.^ 

The inscriptions copied in 1890 and 1891 follow. As 
far as possible they are reproduced as cut on the stones, 
with the exception of those lines which were displayed in 
semicircular fashion. To distinguish such from the 
remainder of the inscription they are here printed in black 
letter. 



Waterbury, that his honor Charles R. Baldwin, mayor of said city 
be and he hereby is appointed a committee to convey to the city of 
Waterbury for the use and benefit of the Silas Bronson library, by 
good and proper deed containing the usual covenants of seizin and 
warrantee, such portion of said Grand Street cemetery as may be 
selected and designated by the board of agents of the Bronson Library 
fund. 

The above and foregoing is a true copy of the record and doings 
of the court of common council of the city of Waterbury in reference 
to a site for a new library building on the Grand street cemetery lot 
in Waterbury. 

Dated at Waterbury December 24th, 1891 

Attest Edward G. Kilduff 
City Clerk of city of Waterbury.

Salem Bridge Burials 

1740-1857 



Pine Hill Cemetery 

(Present Naugatuck) 

.... "It was during these days of fear that the second 
place of burial within the township was established. It is the 
southern portion of that now known as Pine Hill cemetery ; 
the same ground so valiantly and reverently saved from 
encroachment and destruction by the efforts of Mr. William 
Ward. In the home of Daniel W^arner in present Naugatuck, 
died on April loth, 1709, his wife Mary, the daughter of Abra- 
ham Andrews, Senior. We do not know that she was the first 
English person to die at Judd's Meadows, but her death evi- 
dently made the need apparent of a place of burial nearer than 
that of our late cemetery on Grand street. The record tells 
us that the selectmen of Waterbury on the next day, April 
iith, with the presence and consent of Samuel Hikcox, laid 
out and sequestered half an acre of land of said Hikcox on 
the southward end of a hill at Judd's Meadow called the 
'pin[e]' hill for a burying place for that part of said town 
or any other who should see cause to make use of it for said 
use : The record adds, that the land w^as laid out with the con- 
sent of the neighborhood, and that on the same day the wife 
of Daniel Warner was buried there. It is difficult to resist the 
impulse to picture in words that first burial in Naugatuck, to 
gather by name the funeral band that went out of the house 
on Fulling Mill brook bearing its silent burden over the rough 
highway down to the lonely height that overlooked the river 
valley, there to lay it down for its long rest, while three mother- 
less children look down into that grave [with] the unutterable 
thoughts that children think, but never speak, in the presence 
of death." — (S. J. Prichard in Town and City of Waterbury.) 

The oldest legible inscription to be seen to-day is "A. Lewis, 
1740," which marks the grave of Abram, son of Deacon Joseph 
Lewis, who died in December, 1740, aged twenty years. 

In a chart of this plot of land made by Mr. Ward there 
are forty-four recognizable graves, thirty-three of which are

marked with legible inscriptions. Of the others it is believed 
that fovir, bearing initials, one of which in each case is "B." 
mark the graves of the four children of John Barnes, who died 
in the great sickness of 1749. This cemetery, laid out in 
1709, reclaimed and improved through the efforts of the 
late J. H. Whittemore in 1886, is now in the care of The 
Grove Cemetery Association.

In 1800, Deacon Elisha Stevens deeded to the town, through 
its selectmen, land near his own house, "where it has been 
improved for a burying ground .... where I and my 
family have made some burials." This yard has been set in 
order "without and within" through the liberality and under

Gunntown Cemetery 



This burial-ground lies within the limits of present Nauga- 
tuck, not far from the intersection of the Middlebury and 
Oxford lines. It is said to have been given to the Episcopal 
society of Gunntown by Enos Osborn, but the date is uncer- 
tain. One statement is that it was about 1750; another date 
given is 1784. Even the later date is impracticable, for the 
reason that Enos Osborn was not born until 1777. He died 
in 185 1, leaving as his heir his grand-nephew — or his wife's — 
Enos Osborn Adams, who in i860 deeded the plot to tlie 
town of Naugatuck. 

The earliest deaths recorded on grave-stones there are: 
Enos, son of Noah and Abigail Scovill, d. July 20, 1790, 
Alma, dau. of Joel and Mehitabel Hull, d. Aug. 31, 1796, 
Sarah, wife of Nath^ Gunn, d. March 8, 1797, aged 79 yrs., 
Comfort, wife of Deac. Thos. Osborn, d. July i, 1798, aged 

68 yrs., 
John Smith, d. Jan. 12, 1799, aged 52 yrs., and 
Enos, son of Noah and Abigail Scovill, d. March 25, 1799. 

The present record begins w'ith the death of still another 
child of Noah Scovill, who died in 1801. 

The original, from which this is copied, is in the posses- 
sion of Mr. Charles H. Hoadley of Naugatuck.

Northbury Burial Grounds 

(Present Thomaston) 

The earlier of the two burying places in Northbury Society 
was laid out in present Thomaston. The land was selected 
and was purchased from Elnathan Taylor in 1736. It was 
used for a period of more than one hundred and forty years. 
Undoubtedly many bodies and stones were removed to Hillside 
Cemetery before the formal giving up of the ground took 
place. The date of the earliest stone found (although some 
are recorded as illegible) is 1742, another is 1744, while two 
are found with the date 1746. The latest is in iSyj. The 
bodies and stones were removed to Hillside Cemetery and the 
site is now occupied by the Town Hall. 

On the Town records are recorded the following names of 
persons once buried within the ground, preceded by the state- 
ment that: 

"In accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of Senate 
Joint Resolution, No. 32, passed at tlie General Assembly at 
the January Session, 1882, the following inscriptions upon 
the monuments in the old cemetery situated in the town of 
Thomaston — being all that are legible — have been transcribed 
before the removal of any of the monuments."

Northbury Cemetery 

(Now Plymouth) 

From the Thomaston Express, April Q, iSgy: 

"A small portion on the west side of the green in Plymouth, 
given for a meeting-house site, parade grovmd and burying- 
ground [by the town of Waterbury and by others, Dec. 3, 
1747] was set apart for burial purposes. The ledge of rocks 
on the south west part prevented its extension toward the 
south more than two-thirds of the way. 

"The first marked grave is that of Lucy, daughter of [Rev.] 
Samuel Todd who died in 1752, aged 11 years.^ The stone 
is a small gray native stone. In later years it has been recut 
and reset. 

"Early in the century the cemetery was nearly all occupied. 
In 1818 a piece of ground adjoining on the west was purchased 
of Joseph Wright who lived in a large two-story house near 
the meeting-house. 

"The conditions of the deed were the payment by the town 
of $178.12^ and the privilege of using the old and new 
parts for the pasturing of sheep only as long as he or his 
wife should live, for two dollars a year. 

"Mr. Wright was a prominent man in public affairs, being 
a member of the Legislature, and the first town-clerk. His 
was the first marble monument erected in this cemetery. 

"Mrs. Bellamy, widow of the noted Dr. Bellamy of Bethle- 
hem, has inscribed on her tombstone the fact that she was 
the wife of three ministers. She lies by the side of the Rev. 
Mr. Storrs, who was her second husband. 

"This was a common ground for everybody to be buried in. 
Whenever a member [of the family] of any resident had a 
place in the ground, space was left near by that families 
might be located together." 

^This is an error. Lucy Todd was born Feb. 6, 1751, and died 
Jan. 9, 1752, aged 11 months. 



iSo Northbury Burials 

Thomaston and Plymouth, called Northbury or Up-river, 
were set off from Waterbury with Westbury Society in 1780, 
forming Watertown. In 1795, Northbury departed from 
Watertown and became Plymouth. In 1875, Thomaston was 
set ofif from Plymouth. The ancient burial-ground still 
remains, as it has been for more than one hundred and sixty 
years, in the rear of the Congregational Church.

DEATHS I74I-I784 

By Ti:mothy Judd 

"A Record of Deaths in Westbury — now Watertown — kept 
by Timothy Judd," to 1781 or 1784, was published in pamphlet 
form in 1845 by the Rev. N. S. Richardson. This record, 
however, varies in so many points from the early one, that 
it seems desirable to give to the public for the first time a copy 
of the original record, as kept by Timothy Judd, which is now 
in possession of his great-great-grandson, George S. Skilton 
of Rockville Center, New York.

These pages comprise the whole of the original "Timothy

Skilton Records 

DEATHS 1 783-1816 

James A. Skilton, of New York, writes concerning these 
records : 

"The following twenty-three pages contain a copy of the list 
of deaths found in the account book of James Skilton of 
Watertown, Connecticut, a grandson of Timothy Judd, Esq., 
on the first page of which the following entry is found : 

'James Skilton's Book bought January 7th 1802. Price 
91 Cents. 6/.' 

"This book contains farm and other accounts of James Skil- 
ton down to 1848, later accounts of George F. Skilton, and 
also what purports to be a copy of 'Timothy Judd Esqr's 
bill of mortality for Westbury, now Watertown, beginning 
with the first person buried Anno 1741 in March,' covering 
ten and a half of the long pages of the book, and containing 
the names of 482 persons, duly numbered. The list of which 
the following twenty-three pages are a copy, contains the 
names of 580 persons — on thirteen pages. 

"As is strongly apparent to me, the whole of the earlier list 
is written in the hand-writing of Dr. Avery J. Skilton. Of 
the later list the entries down to, and including the words 
'Account kept by James Skilton from Jan. ist 1813,' are 
also in his handwriting, and some of the others down to No. 
576 seem also to have been written by him. When these 
records were so copied, or from what originals, I am unable 
to learn. The copying must, I think, have been done prior to 
1848, for I am not aware that he was ever in Watertown after 
that date; and not earlier than 1841, when he was there on 
his long trip with tlie horse Prince, when I was with him. 

"Perhaps it was later than 1848 on further reflection, for I 
am told he did go to consult with the doctor in charge of 
Grandmother at some time, and I think he then visited the 
'Yellow house,' found one of the silk, high-heeled slippers in 
which Tabitha Avery was married and took it to Troy where 



230 Skilton Records 

it was burned in the great fire of 1862; as he also did the 
original deeds and papers in his scrap-book. I doubt if he 
saw the small Timothy Judd record, and copied from that, 
since the two differ materially. 

"He was early interested in the Watertown Mortality record 
printed by Rev. N. S. Richardson, and had a copy of it in his 
library, which I now have. Perhaps further examination and 
inquiry will furnish further explanations. The original small 
copy, which is evidently in the handwriting of Timothy Judd, 
came to, and belongs to, Geo. F. Skilton, from Aunt Tabitha. 
The James Skilton account book also belongs to him. And 
it contains items of interest outside of the mortality record 
therein. 

"As will be seen on comparison, the two lists above men- 
tioned are more full than the Richardson list as printed ; there 
are some variations of names and dates, and valuable items on 
genealogical subjects appear in them. 

"I am informed by Mrs. Richardson in a letter received 
from her in August last, from Bridgeport, that she knew of 
no originals now in existence, either of the Judd or Peck 
mortality record, but remembered that her husband depended 
largely upon recollections of reliable old people and upon 
family Bibles and other family records. 

James A. Skilton. 

"New York, Sept. 26, 1889." 

Under date of March 25, 1895, Mr. Skilton writes: "I 
am glad to know that the Timothy Judd record has already 
been of material service not only to you, but to others. I 
wonder if there are not other mistakes of a similar character 
in the printed Watertown record? I know there are many 
omissions, and especially of genealogical details. Your letter 
again suggests what I intended to do when I found the original 
record in 1888, to wit, to have the whole thing photolitho- 
graphed, and spread the copies abroad for the use of geneal- 
ogists generally. 

"You perhaps do not remember that I at last found the 
burial place of Timothy Judd in the Northfield cemetery, not 



Westbury Deaths 231 

far from the farm where he died, a large white stone still 
marking the grave." 

Timothy Judd, Esq., died January 23, 1796, aged 82 
years.

The Congregational Church Records are missing to about 
1785. The deaths are given from May 25, 1785, but without 
dates until "Jan. ist, 1786," some of which seem to be dates 
of burials. Where the record of the Church adds anything to, 
or differs essentially from the following record, it is given 
in parentheses.

The Meeting-House Book 

1727-1729 

The First Church in Waterbury was organized in 169 1, the 
number of male communicants being seven. The first meet- 
ing-house was probably built in 1694, and was used for about 
thirty-five years. 

The second meeting-house was thought of and planned for 
as early as 1722, for in that year we find the people saying 
that they will go about building a meeting-house as soon as they 
are able, and "we will build it upon the Green upon which the 
present meeting house stands." In 1729 they also declare: 
"We will build a meeting house forty feet wide and fifty feet 
long." 

The little book here reproduced for the first time is in the 
handwriting of the Reverend John Southmayd and was found 
among the papers left by the Honorable John Kingsbury. It 
tells the story of the manner in which the money was raised 
for the building and the cost of the structure. In "The Town 
and City of Waterbury, Connecticut," Volume I, Chapter 
XXIII, Miss Sarah J. Prichard gives an interesting and concise 
account of the building of this meeting-house.

The Seating of the Second Meeting-House 

1791 

Very little appears on the town records concerning the seat- 
ing of the two meeting-houses. On the last day of June, 1729, 
the Reverend Mr. Southmayd states that the town had given 
to him the liberty of choosing his seat in the meeting-house. 
After enumerating the persons selected to fill this pew and 
the corresponding one on the other side of the pulpit, he closes 
the record for three months. Why? 

The clerg}'men who "ministered to the people" during the 
life of this small edifice were John Southmayd for about twelve 
years and Mark Leavenworth (ordained in March, 1740), who 
died August 26, 1797, "in tlie 58th year of his ministry." 

Among the papers of David Prichard (i 736-1838) were 
found two documents of more than passing interest, one being 
a small account book, on one page of which is written: 
"August ye 20 Ad 1797 the estate of M"" Leavenworth detor 
for his coffin £0- 16-0;" and the other, a "seating" believed 
to be the oldest now obtainable and probably the latest seating 
of the second meeting-house,.

List of Tax-Paying Inhabitants 

1730-1783 

The Rate-Books from which these Hsts have been compiled 
were found in 1890 among the papers left by the late Judge 
John Kingsbury. They give an almost complete record of the 
tax-payers of the town for fifty-four years, beginning in 1730. 
The missing books cover the years 1740, 1745, 1747, 1757, 
1760, 1772, 1775, 1778, and 1782, nine in all. 

The first column of figures represents the ratable amount 
of each person in pounds and the second column the year in 
which the name first appears. A period following the date 
signifies that the person thus referred to paid taxes for that 
year only. The entire list for 1730 is to be found in The Town 
and City of Waterbury, Connecticut, Vol. i, pages 303-309.

Farmingbury Burying-Ground 

(Present Wolcott) 

At a town meeting held December 31, 1764, Captain George 
Nichols and Captain Stephen Upson, Jr., were appointed "to 
go out eastward near Joseph Atkins' to view and purchase 
half an acre of land upon the town cost in that neighborhood 
where they shall think it most convenient for a burying yard." 

This purchase was the beginning of the Wolcott Center 
burying-ground. The oldest inscribed stone standing therein 
is to the memory of Lieutenant Heman Hall ; the date is 1769. 
A number — probably ten or twelve — field stones, without 
inscriptions, are to be seen. 

On April 13, 1795, a committee was appointed to contract, 
if possible, with William Stevens "for a small tract of land 
to sequester to the use of the public for a burying ground 
and to take a deed of him or to report to the town." In 
1797 — the year after Farmingbury society became the town 
of Wolcott — Waterbury directed that Wolcott should be paid 
£3, los., to be applied to the payment in part of their burying- 
ground. In the same year Stevens still laid claim to a portion 
of the ground, and Wolcott appointed a committee to settle 
with him, which was finally accomplished. 

In 1772, the society of Farmingbury appointed three grave 
diggers, indicating the existence of three graveyards : the 
Center, Pike's hill, and the Southeast graveyards; the latter, 
on the Farmington side of the line, is now known as the Lewis 
Cemetery. 

The succeeding inscriptions are from the Center burying- 
ground and from the Wolcott Church records.

noblest young men, who gave his life for his country in 1863. 
Capt. Isaac R. Bronson 
14th Conn. Vol's 
Died June 2, 1863, 
at Potomac Creek, Va., 
of wounds received at Chancellorsville, 
aged 27- 
A brave Soldier, a Christian Patriot 
Though ardently loving and greatly beloved 
Yet he cheerfully gave his life for his Country. 
His last words were "Death is nothing to the 

glory beyond." 
Come from the heat of battle, and in peace 
Soldier go home; with thee the fight is won.

Prospect Burying-Ground 

(Formerly Columbia Society) 

Prospect, taken from Cheshire and Waterbury, was incor- 
porated as a town in 1827. Ahhough the burial place is within 
the limits of Ancient Cheshire, the inhabitants on the Water- 
bury side of the line were there buried, and it seems proper 
to give the names of the persons interred in this graveyard 
before the incorporation of the town.
